Great, now i'm left with no laser again. And this was the only laser i could buy for the year. i guess i need to find a new hobby now  :-[

How did it break?  Did it just die or did something happen to it?[/quote]
I turned it on, and 5 seconds later it just went to a very dim green, and then you can see a faint red glow from the ir diode, and when i look with the webcam, i see ir is all thats there. Hmm.. What do i do now. :'([/quote]
It sounds like the crystals are fried.  Your best bet is to contact focalprice and ask for a refund or replacement.(Good luck with that)  If they won't make it right then do a paypal dispute or chargeback.[/quote]


Is this the same laser that was in pieces on the other thread? I would not refund or exchange post tampering, to each his own I guess.

The thing is with focal price, you have to pay the shipping to them, and i'm not going to waist my own money.
I have a Claim open with them right now. Hopefully i will win.

You broke the laser...and you're filing a claim???

I FIXED IT !! Running this laser now with a CR123 battery. It is so much brighter now also. Ill have pics in a few minutes. I say its at least 2 times as bright. It pops balloons like nothing. Now to do a match test.

You won't be able to get any back for as long as you are in possession of the laser. And PayPal doesn't refund shipping.

Hi all, might I ask a simple question how did Wes get the camera to fill in with the laser light long enough to spell his name ? Thank you in advanced.
